Heath Ledgers Joker Diary

A video about Heath Ledger prepping play the Joker had been released which looks to be part of a bigger documentary. The video featured whats called Heath Ledgers Joker Diary which has the actors notes and research used to get into the part in the Dark Knight.

The video has been dubbed into French but an English version must be circulating around somewhere. This could be one of the best things to come from France since the French Fry.

Translation:

This is the Joker’s diary.

In order to inhabit his﻿ character, he (Heath) locked himself up in a hotel room for weeks.

He would do that. He liked to dive into his characters, but this time he really took it up a notch.”

“The hospital scene is interesting because when he was a kid, his sister Kate liked to dress him up as a nurse. He was really funny like that. He also was in the movie.

This is a make-up﻿ test which was done eight months before. Before the end of the shooting he wrote “bye bye” on the back of the page. It was hard to see this.’
